SUMMARY:Webinar: Planning for the Next Three Letter Urban Tree Canopy Changer: Lessons Learned with DED\, EAB\, ETC.
DESCRIPTION:All aboard a TREE Fund train trip ride back to what we have learned this past century with some important urban tree canopy game changers. Our first stop is a lesson in biology and an interdisciplinary economic journey using lessons learned from DED and EAB. See how science has led to reliable predictors with a planned stop at preventing tree loss and the currency of canopy. The future journey continues to see how the TREE Fund supports tree changing research and practical results you can use and avoid getting derailed by ETC. \n\n\n\nISA and SAF CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS (available with the live broadcast) ISA CEU Category: BCMA Science: 1\, Practice: 0\, Management: 0\, Climber Specialist: 1\, Certified Arborist: 1\, Municipal Specialist: 1\, Aerial Lift: 1. SAF CFE Category: Cat 1: 1\, Cat 2: 0

SUMMARY:Urban Forest Connections Webinar: Taking Flight - Urban Forest Stewardship for Bird Conservation using i-Tree Eco Software
DESCRIPTION:Each May\, World Migratory Bird Day brings attention to one of the most important and spectacular events in the Americas – bird migration – and reminds us that many birds aren’t connected to a single place\, but survive and even thrive in diverse habitats during often long and arduous passage across a broad swath of landscapes and ecosystems in an increasingly urbanized planet. Dr. Wayne Arendt and Jerry Bauer\, both with the USDA Forest Service’sInternational Institute of Tropical Forestry based in San Juan\, Puerto Rico\, will share how the combination of decades of bird data linked to natural and innate variables generated by US Forest Service i-Tree and i-Tree Eco software can provide new insights into the many ways highly disparate and dispersed urban green areas\, including urban forests with their complex structure\, composition and diverse mixture of native and introduced species\, can influence urban bird biodiversity and promote natural and anthropogenic ecosystem services provided to Santo Domingo\, and the city’s reciprocity promoting sustainable and functional benefits to trees\, birds and all incumbent life forms. Robert Northrop\, an extension forester with the University of Florida\, will discuss what this means for urban forest stewardship\, and how local decisions can have a synergistic impact on urban terrestrial and marine resident and migratory birds\, ecosystem services and human well-being across a migratory landscape. \n\n\n\n1 ISA CEU available

SUMMARY:Free Webinar: The Influence of Municipal Pruning Practices on Urban Forest Health and Storm Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Municipalities across the U.S. are increasingly challenged to fund and perform systematic tree pruning activities that enhance urban tree health and longevity\, maximize ecosystem service benefits\, improve climate and storm resilience\, and minimize public risk. Only (46%) of 667 U.S. communities surveyed in 2014 reported completing tree pruning on a systematic basis. Dr. Richard Hauer will share the benefits of systematic pruning and the status of pruning in U.S. cities. Dr. Leslie Brandt will spotlight tree maintenance practices\, innovations and challenges from 10 case studies in the U.S. Through analysis of decades of systematic pruning data in Milwaukee\, Randy Krouse will demonstrate the importance of pruning cycle/forest structure alignment on forest health and resilience\, tree maintenance capacity\, storm resilience and public safety. Finally\, Paul Johnson will wrap up the discussion by highlighting current and emergent resource aids for improved urban forest management. \n\n\n\nThis webinar is open to all. We are seeking 1 CEU with the International Society of Arboriculture.
